Summary:
Summary
This contract will provide for repair, rehabilitation, and improvements to sanitary sewer pump stations at various locations throughout the County. The current contract will expire on November 4, 2021. Pump station repair and rehabilitation is essential for the prevention of SSOs. Some of the County stations are now over thirty years old. As the equipment approaches the end of its useful service life, it is necessary to not only repair or replace, but also to incorporate newer, advanced, and more efficient technology and communication options and equipment. These improvements are implemented to keep the sanitary sewer collection system functioning at an acceptable level of service.
